  My job takes me to many places all over the western part of the Smokey mountains.  I have worked from west of Kimble TN to south of Dalton GA all the way to Canton NC.  It has been such a blessing to do this job.  There are so many places that I would not have[...]

One of my very first jobs was at a grocery store is Florida called Winn Dixie.  I put my first stereo on layaway when I got my job.  A couple years later I was able to get a loan and bought my first car.  A red Toyota Corolla. I loved that car.  Can’t remember why[...]

Not sure if I am ready for the cold that is coming.  We did have some trees cut in February so we do have lots of fire wood.  They are predicting that the fall colors are going to be really vibrant this year.  Make sure to check out all the Smokey Mountain Parkways.

The tan and black are litter mates that we had for about  5-6 years.  Both died way too soon.  The other one is a rescue from TN.  Had her about two months and then she was adopted by a great couple.  She was by far the smartest dog I ever had the pleasure of knowing.

What can be said?  It never gets old to see a sunrise or sunset.  Reminds me of a song by Clay Cross “My place is with You”.  Never pass up the opportunity to watch a sunrise or sunset.  Have a happy hump day!

Had a family of 11 rent a place in Sevierville TN to check out Dolly Wood.  It is for sure a place to visit.  You will need at least three days.  Two for all the wonderful shows and a day for riding rides and shopping.  Bigger than I thought it was but,  everything is well[...]

Happy Thursday, getting some much needed rain for my flowers and garden.  Bought more flowers today for the coming fall displays.  I grew some corn that is now ready to be tied together to make a pretty fall display.  I will post pictures tomorrow.  Making flower boxes for the fence.  I do believe flowers are[...]
